What camera angle is that Goalgerd? Is it a replay camera or a playable one on the ps4? Thanks.
Haha! No FIFA here. Gotta get up tomorrow at 5 again to work. I'll b playing over the weekend. Cant wait now to check the gameplay after the patch, since everybody seems so happy with it!Who’s ready for some voice chat while playing fifa?! Discord is fine too.
I want to express myself... chat about the game....
@Emroth you got your mic yet?! What up with the wifey?
Hit me with a message when you are ready to play either game with me (AND you got beer at stock)!Haha! No FIFA here. Gotta get up tomorrow at 5 again to work. I'll b playing over the weekend. Cant wait now to check the gameplay after the patch, since everybody seems so happy with it!
No haven’t got any idea sorry guys..Nothing I can find. I know West Brom's was missing, I think Bristol City's was too? I've heard there's plenty, but I can't find a list. Last person to mention it was @Mikhail (see below) - any idea, Mikhail?
I think the way the ball slows down is just about perfect. We definitely don't want it back the way it used to be in past FIFA games where it would roll too much and everything was going out of play.
Totally agree. I'd rather the ball be inclined to stay in than have everything fly off the pitch like in previous iterations. Not just for long balls, but I swear tackles within like, 10-yards of the touchline resulted in the ball going out far too often. It felt a bit predetermined and was very frustrating.
And someone please tell me: why do manual long balls from the keeper still feel assisted?! Man!! That’s so lovely in the other game.
I really like the ground kick offs from the keeper, where you can’t change the camera but change the direction with LS! That’s manual!! Power is applied manual too and you can see the result!
When the keeper got the ball in hands, it feels assisted. Doesn’t matter how detailed my controller input is... it feels assisted.
You just can’t just cant pin point where the ball has to go... don’t like that at all.
During a match I’m fine with manual settings... be it high, regular or low crosses (L1, Cross Button, R2 (I changed it with sprint on R1!)... I can put them where I want. But from the keepers hands.. it’s not really manual!!
ps: and shout me a holla when anyone wants to voice chat. I’m on. Day off tmw. So call me, guys!!
@Mikhail have you tried full manual? If not at least try manual shooting. I am not a great player and i only play about twice a day. But since the patch manual passing has become slightly easier.
Regarding short passing, i just take my time to make sure that passing lane is free. With manual you can play into space so your player can run onto it.
Also, i play on 10min half now so that it is not so rushed.
I feel stats still come into affect. For example i was running through on goal with my young DMF with about 58 OVR, his shot was scuffed and went wide. Then later in the same match my striker was in the same situation and although he still missed his shot was far more direct if that makes sense. Just one small example. But i find the same with passing too.
One last thing, my passing accuracy at the end is normally about 60% which is pretty bad but is it because i am more imaginative playing balls into space etc...? If my pass is into space does it count as a misplaced pass? Maybe. I don’t pay much attention to the stats only shots on target etc... Some CPU teams have 90% but when I reflect on the game Southend (me) were playing better. I really wish they did not include that stat, just possession would have been good enough.
Give it a go though at least for a few games. The game is playing very well for me but like I said I only play a couple games a day so maybe that is why.
I played four matches on my Wimbledon career mode yesterday on full manual (professional). Lost every game 1-0. Had a few through on goal situations, but everytime my players just blasted the ball over. Manual shooting is a bit odd to me, but I guess it will come with time. Anyways, it was really hard without feeling like I was cheated. Felt like playing with the default ML squad back in the good ol' PES days. Think I'll stick with it for a while.
Played Spurs vs Hull in a friendly later to check, and the Spurs players are definitely better passers and finishers, despite it being on full manual. Won 3-0, and could easily have scored more. Felt like a well balanced game.
I think full manual on professional is the way forward for me with this game - feels like the right challenge without being cheated. Semi-assisted became a bit too easy once form kicked in. I reckon full manual will keep it relatively hard. So cheers for the feedback! What power bar settings are you using though? I upped mine to 60, and it feels fine with Spurs, but very underpowered with Wimbledon (but on 70, every shot I shoot just blasts over).
Played half a dozen matches post patch and don't really have strong feelings. It plays better but the difference is marginal in the run of play, though the fix to shooting was definitely needed. Quite pleased with shooting now.
But I'm struggling to feel bothered to play considering how easy CM is even on Ultimate. It's a shame too because in FUT Squad Battles I'm winning only about 50% of my matches on just Legendary. Biggest issue in CM is just how silly easy it is to create chances because the CPU defenders are pathetic.
Here's an example below. This is James Milner dribbling 30 yards without a single defender bothering to apply pressure. Then Pulisic misses a chance but again no defender bothered to try to stop him. I went half the length of the pitch without a single tackle attempted by the CPU. Not a single one. You'd think on the highest difficulty in the game it'd be just a tad more difficult.
I won the match 0-5. I had 25 attempts and the match easily could've been 0-10 but I not only took my foot off the gas but I missed some sitters, almost as if the game intentionally chose for me to miss. Such a shame because otherwise gameplay, for the most part, is pretty great this year.
